Oh Louise, this feels so very pertinent tonight when tomorrow I will take a flight to Portugal, a flight that will

pollute the air we breathe and the earth we grow our food in… it is over six years since I have flown anywhere and had this not been a gift from my daughter I would even have considered the thought of it. I am excited yes, but I wish we could walk…. 😔

Susie, we do what we can. You have consistently nurtured the earth and the furry/feathery friends around you. You take care to keep your own detrimental contributions to the environment limited. There are times, however, when you also have to allow yourself to recharge the batteries so that you can continue to care for those and the nature in your safe keeping. If everyone had these values, we’d be living on quite a different planet.

From this side of our tiny planet, enjoy your trip. Safe travels, my friend❣️

Thank you so much Louise, Both Rosie and I try hard to be good and planet caring humans always. We are incredibly excited, it will be the first time we have travelled outside of France together so an extra special trip, despite the carbon footprint. xx

And Susie, you are sharing your chosen transportation vehicle with many others. It’s not your private jet with only four passengers. 😉

Have a great trip! Hi, Rosie. xx
